Take out one won ton wrapper at a time and place some of the filling in the center of the square. Fold in half evenly and pinch the ends closed. Or pull the bottom corners toward each other, overlap the tips, and pinch together.

Cover finished won tons with a damp paper towel to keep them moist. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the won tons and saute until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
